Quite possible that Joseph Marti AKA Marty Joseph AKA Zoe7's death was drug related.

In one of his books https://archive.org/details/into_the_void/page/n277/mode/2up he writes that after three years of intense drug use he was experiencing "rather severe headaches", extreme dizziness and hot flashes, and episodes of missing time.

He details taking a staggering amount and variety of drugs.

Corporate name is Thevine Center. In the past they were known as Ayahuasca-Healing. They do business as CENTRO ESPIRITUAL GAIA - CEG.

I try to screen out those individuals who are psychotic of who may be suffering from a
“spiritual emergency”. Since we are doing group sessions, I also want to make sure the
participants are neither psychopaths or sociopaths. Those people who are suffering
from bipolar disorders should not do Ayahuasca.

Joseph "Joey" Marti said he was a "multi dimensional synergy personality cluster" Zoe7 including five other personalities "Max McCullan, Ebhrious, Jiebro, Kzark Presudius, and Lee
Steel". He said the reason his math is off is because "In Our case 1 + t + 1 + 1 + 1 + H6] = 7 > or simply, 3 + 3-7".

This one came to our attention because of their incredible cluelessness. This is an actual email from their promoter:

----------
My name is Tigran, and I represent  spiritvineretreats.com
As someone deeply passionate about wellness and holistic healing I am keen to explore the possibility of contributing to your platform.

Could you please provide information on the following:
* Guest posting guidelines, including preferred topics and word count.
* Specific formatting or style preferences for articles.
* Requirements or opportunities for link exchange, if applicable.
* Any editorial fees or other requirements, if applicable.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your response.

--------
They were clueless enough to ask how much they needed to pay us to promote them. I sent back this answer:

You really should do research, or even basic reading, before embarrassing yourself.

We expose spiritual exploiters, imposters, and plastic shamans like your site. We put out warnings to keep the public from harm.

We will write on your pay to pray site run by white exploiters now.

This is their site. https://spiritvineretreats.com/

The exploiters:

One from academia, an Argentinian shrink.
"Silvia Polivoy, Ph.D.
I have been investigating modified states of consciousness for over twenty-five years and carried out field research in the Amazon with Shipibo shamans and Mexico with Mazatec shamans, as well as worked extensively with Ayahuasca, San Pedro, and other sacred plants in their native habitats.
I have a postgraduate degree in clinical psychology. For more than 20 years I had my private practice in Buenos Aires, starting with psychoanalysis and later progressing to transactional analysis and transpersonal psychology, and much later to shamanism and spiritual practices.
Since 1996, I have hosted retreats in the Peruvian and the Brazilian Amazon. At these retreats, participants had the opportunity to “meet” the ancient plant teacher ayahuasca in its natural environment – the jungle. And lectures by renowned specialists in sacred plants, ethnobotany, chemistry, consciousness, visionary art, etc.
In 2004, Zoe Seven (consciousness researcher) and I co-founded Spirit Vine Spiritual Center in the Atlantic forest of Bahia, Brazil, to host retreats...
After the retreats, participants have the option to have online sessions with me to continue working on integration."

---------
Joseph Marti AKA Marty Joseph AKA Zoe7. He died pretty young, in his mid 50s, still trying to find out why. A Timothy Leary type who wrote about his drug experiences for a living.

"Zoe7 co-founded TheVine Center along with Silvia in 2004. He was an international lecturer, author, and cartographer of altered states of consciousness and also the author of 2 books (Into The Voidand Back From The Void) which depict his experiments fusing psychoactive plants and compounds together with computer-based neuro-technology devices (a.k.a “mind machines”).

He has written for entheogen and neuro-technology related magazines including The AVS Journal, MAPS Bulletin, and the Entheogen Review and has also been interviewed on radio and television programs."

And the various others at times associated with them. Very few of them inspire confidence.

------------
"Rick Doblin, PhD He is the founder and president of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS), a non-profit membership-based research and educational organization that sponsors clinical studies designed to obtain FDA approval for the use of MDMA as a prescription medicine. Rick obtained his Ph.D. in Public Policy...."

Really? Someone who writes on govt policy is your "expert?"

-----------
"Alistair Alistair is a TV journalist and presenter in the UK with long experience of Buddhist meditation."

Oh brother...

--------
"Alex Grey (born November 29, 1953) is an American visionary artist, author, teacher, and Vajrayana practitioner. His body of work spans a variety of forms including performance art, process art, installation art, sculpture, visionary art, and painting."

No idea how he's supposedly an expert either.

----------
"Jon Hanna
He is an event producer, editor, writer, and harm reduction advocate working in the field of psychoactive drugs. He is well-known for his Mind States conferences, which focus on altered states of consciousness. Author of the Psychedelic Resource List, Hanna is a psychedelic consumer advocate who has written for numerous magazines and has spoken internationally on the topic of visionary art and entheogens. He has also volunteered as a sitter at Burning Man and the Boom Festival."

Advocating drugs be legalized doesn't make you an expert. And Burning Man? Seriously?

------------
"Jonathan Ott Is a prolific and highly regarded writer, translator, publisher, reviewer and pundit on virtually every aspect of entheogen botany, chemistry, pharmacology, bioassay, culture, history, and politics."

He lost me when he claims to have written on EVERY aspect of "culture, history, and politics." A self appointed expert.

-----------
"Martina Hoffmann Her work has been exhibited internationally as well as being published in books, calendars and magazines...."

Are they kidding?

-----------
"Robert Venosa
The Fantastic Realism art of Robert Venosa has been exhibited worldwide and is represented in major collections, including those of noted museums, rock stars and European aristocracy."

Again, are they kidding?
Well, if a rock star and a duke have your paintings, you might be a shame on.

---------
"Sue Minns Sue has been working in the field of complementary health care for over 20 years. She trained as a past life therapist with Dr Roger Woolger, a pioneer in the field of past life therapy....

She also trained in Shamanic practice with Sandra Ingerman and is well-known at the College of Psychic Studies..."

You worked with one of the worst frauds out there and claim to be a psychic?
Again, are they kidding?

--------
"Richard Glen Boire is Co-Director and Legal Counsel for the Center for Cognitive Liberty & Ethics. He is a writer, social systems analyst and legal scholar, specializing in cognitive liberty dissident thinking and control theory. Mr. Boire received his Doctorate of Jurisprudence from the University of California, Berkeley...."

A Berkeley lawyer is your expert?
Again, are they kidding?

-----------
"Christine Page, M.D. She has almost 30 years of experience in the healing professions as a physician in hospital, in general practice and as a homeopath."

At least they had a doctor on site just in case. Sometimes. In the past. She was there to lecture, not for medicine.

--------
"Isabela Hartz Isabela was...living for several years in Céu do Mapiá, the spiritual center of the doctrinal line created by Sebastião Mota de Melo, founder of CEFLURIS and Shaman’s Drum.Isabela Hartz has done numerous exhibitions in Brazil and has worked as a fashion designer as well as created the cover art for over one hundred books."

A fashion designer who lived near some people she says were reel spirchul.
How many times can I ask if they're kidding?

----------
"Frank Echenhofer He received his MA in humanistic psychology from the University of West Georgia, and his Ph.D. in developmental psychology from Temple University. Currently, he is an associate professor of psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS)"

Another exploiter from academia. One who seriously brags about being part of this con artist outfit posing as a school.

"Andrés Hu... a degree in Contemporary Chinese Language and Literature from the University of Beijing and a Master’s degree from a co-program of the University of Singapore/Harvard University in Public Policy...He has studied different forms of Yoga...."

A lit degree. Another in govt policy. And yoga. None of them make him an expert on this.

-----------
"Simone Ribeiro de Paula graduated from Universidade UNICEUB with a degree in biology and has been working with essential oils since 2003."

White Brazilian who works with essential oils? Well she >must< be an "expert." Pardon my laughter.

At this guy too.

"Adriano De Carvalho He graduated from the Universidade Católica de Brasília with a degree in chemistry, and has been working with essential oils since 1998."

-----------
"John Qureshi, D.O, is a registered osteopath specialising in cranial osteopathy. He has a practice...London."

A British quack doing altmedicine.
This mestizo below, now passed away, seems to be who they all learned from:

----------
Pablo Amaringo He is a Peruvian shaman, teacher and artist, and has Lamista, Cocama and Piro Indian ancestors.
Pablo Amaringo is fluent in English, Spanish, and Quechua with knowledge of the Cocama, Amahuaca and Shipibo tribes.

----------
Who he has descent of and which people he claims to know are different. Seemingly he wasn't part of any of the communities.
His wiki page has more:

"Pablo Cesar Amaringo Shuña (January 21, 1938[2] – November 16, 2009) was a Peruvian artist, renowned for his intricate, colourful depictions of his visions from drinking the entheogenic plant brew ayahuasca.[3] He was first brought to the West's attention by Dennis McKenna and Luis Eduardo Luna, who met Pablo in Pucallpa while traveling during work on an ethnobotanical project. Pablo worked as a vegetalista, a shaman in the mestizo tradition of healing....
When Luna and McKenna met Amaringo in 1985, he was living in poverty, barely surviving by teaching English to young people from his home and selling the odd painting to passing tourists. Luna suggested he paint some of his visions, a project which became the basis of a coauthored book, Ayahuasca Visions: The Religious Iconography of a Peruvian Shaman."

Dennis McKenna was the brother of drug advocate Terence McKenna, the same nut who played a big part on the 2012 Hoax.

Looking at all of this, there was no reason not to immediately put this bunch in Frauds.

Frauds / Re: Margaret Noodin, Professor
« Last post by Advanced Smite on September 08, 2024, 07:24:55 pm »
Mark Freeland, Margaret's hand picked successor (as she made clear in a post on this forum), has "cleared" her of faking Native American ancestry. Freeland was appointed by the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee to conduct a review.

Also reported by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:

https://eu.jsonline.com/story/news/education/2024/08/19/uw-milwaukee-hands-margaret-noodin-investigation-over-to-close-colleague/74742858007/

(The article is marked "For Subscribers" but I can read all of it.) It links to an earlier article, which I quoted in full here in the NAFPS forum on Nov. 04, 2023. (It's now "free for all readers" since Jan. 8, 2024.)

From the most recent article:
Quote
To Noodin's critics, however, UWM's handling of the matter was problematic and highlights how universities are ill-equipped at addressing these complicated cases.

"All I can say is wow," said Sarah Gordon Altiman, a UWM graduate student who took several classes with Noodin; she is also an enrolled citizen of the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Chippewa. "It is interesting that the university had her hand-picked successor be the so-called expert on Indigenous identity. (Noodin and Freeland) are personal friends and knew each other prior to his hiring — talk about a conflict of interest.

UWM declined to answer questions about how it conducted the investigation, saying they could not comment on personnel matters. Freeland said his relationship with Noodin "can only be described as professional and collegial. Any suggestion that my integrity is compromised is misplaced."

For her part, Noodin expressed a sense of vindication.

"After intensive investigation, UWM concluded that I had done nothing wrong morally, ethically or professionally," she wrote in an email to the Journal Sentinel. Still, [UWM Provost Andrew] Daire's instruction to consider how she represent herself made her "far less willing" to talk with anyone outside her family about their history.

"I continue to believe that identity is complex, personal and I cannot change any of the foundational beliefs and experiences that have made me who I am," she wrote."

Frauds / Re: Nathon Breu, UW-Milwaukee
« Last post by educatedindian on August 30, 2024, 11:03:56 pm »

The State of Wisconsin has a helpful website for looking up Circuit Court records (which are public under state law): https://wcca.wicourts.gov/. Nathon Breu (note the unique spelling of "Nathon") pled guilty to several misdemeanors and had a felony dismissed from charges entered on 5/4/2020. He accepted a deferred prosecution agreement that appears to have been completed and resulted in the dismissal of the felony. Nathon lists his race as "American Indian or Alaskan Native" which is incredibly distasteful behavior and evidence of the harm done by pretendians. Nathon (a white man) now has his crimes included in "American Indian or Alaskan Native" statistics. This is also interesting in light of the harassment accusations allegedly made by Nathon against the former UW-Milwaukee student....   

I'm not sure how NAFPS administrators/moderators make the decision to move from Research Needed to Frauds. Can an administrator or moderator advise on what else is needed?

I'm sorry I missed this months back. I'm adding the information about his case and moving the thread.
